Hi Will,
I just went through this exercise.
I settled on the Kannad 406. It's not the cheapest but the reliability data won
me over.
With the whip antenna you can install it within the fuzz so there's no sticking
out bits adding drag.
Best
Jon

And if you are really unlucky and ditch in the sea the ELT goes down with aircraft,
If you have a PLB clipped to you and it could make your survival more likely
Just my two pennies worth!

Hmmm thanks the very same thought had occurred to me.
In Colombia I am not required to have anti collision or navigation lights
or an ELT. However I plan to re register my aircraft in the USA when I get
there and so I am getting ready for compliance in the USA where both are
required, as I understand it.
Also I haven't decided on my route. Essentially there are or were three
options.
1. Right: Over venezuela to trinidad and then up the islands. Until
venezuela began suffering "issues" this was the preferred route. Both
relatively quick and fun.
2. Middle: BOG Santa Marta, Curacao, Santo Domingo. This is 350nm over
sea. Fast but 350 miles over the sea....hmmmm
3. Left - up Central America. This has 100m over the Darien Gap which
is tall jungle. to Ditch in the jungle is probably as dangerous if not
more so than sea. So I figure an ELT might be useful in this case.
I am researching....

I concur Fred,
I fly with the iridium delorme (now garmin) tracker/texting/plb and it works great
(anywhere in the world). I also strap on a very small plb on my leg in case
i need to bail :)
Who needs elt's that typically break their antennas in serious crashes anyway?
